The TriggerPoint STK also features innovative AcuGRIP handles, which, much like a massage therapist’s thumb, are uniquely designed to target specific areas and provide relief to the deep tissue. The STK can be used either seated or standing to roll through tight muscles and knots in soft tissue that can restrict movement and mobility. The TriggerPoint GRID STK Handheld Foam Roller is available in two densities, regular and extra firm, the STK and STK X. Both handheld massage rollers provide portable, on-the-go relief from muscular aches and pains. One year manufacturer warranty. 21 x 2.5 x 2.5 inches; Weight 1 lb.

Great quality, target calves muscles, TriggerPoint STK Contour Flexible
I used to run and have had a problem with my calves muscles (esp. anterior tibialis) for years. The muscles get very tight and hard, and I read that it’s due to muscle weakness and overuse. I noticed certain areas are sore as soon as I started rolling. I’ve been using this in addition to [TriggerPoint GRID Foam Roller Original (13-inch)] on my calves about 3-5 times a week, and I’ve already noticed an improvement in my symptoms after about a month.I tried the Performance GRID STK Handheld Foam Roller Regular Density (since doesn’t roll smoothly, hard to exert pressure and roll at the same time) and the travel edition (the pointy massage roller poke uncomfortably), but for my calves, this was the best. It rolls smoothly. The rollers are made of foam that doesn’t have much give (it’s much harder than the GRID roller foam). The design makes it easy to get the muscle area right next to the shin bone without rolling over the bone. The roller does bend a little bit, but not a lot, which is good because you can exert as much pressure as you’d like.I’ve also used on other muscle groups (upper legs, forearms). The shoulder is a bit tricky, but when you are able to stabilize the roller, it works very well (just be careful as the handle can leave a black mark on the wall).

Almost as good as your PT!
I bought this Trigger Point Massage Stick after having used the one at my PT for 2 years after 2 knee replacement surgeries. Now that I’m near graduating from ongoing PT, time to get the equipment that helped my recovery most for my home gym. Before I used this stick, I used a swivel roller stick to rub out adhesions from my muscles and other soft tissues. That product, which I still own and use, is complementary to this stick. The main reasons why: 1) It’s much easier to grip this stick to stop the rolling motion which adds to the “pulling” of your tissues to aid stretching, 2) the knobby protrusions really do feel like your PT’s fingers, 3) the handle offers another way to dig into your tissues. Overall, it’s the application of friction on your skin and tissues that has a totally different impact to your recovery. The stick, at 21″, is a little too big for air travel or most carry on bags. And since I have used it during this crazy COVID time, the materials have tolerated continuous and repeated exposure to industrial strength sanitizers. The rubbers and plastic have not suffered in the least. I love this stick and highly recommend it.

I now know that it can loosen up my taught lower back muscles after sleeping on a poor mattress. All it takes is about 15 second
I tried this out in a store on my back, so I knew it worked well on my middle back, before purchasing it. I now know that it can loosen up my taught lower back muscles after sleeping on a poor mattress. All it takes is about 15 seconds and I can walk smoothly in the morning.I also gave my dad one for his restless leg syndrome. I doubt it will cure it, but it has helped ease his symptoms.I recently ran a half-marathon and pushed myself for a PR. This roller has greatly eased my stiff calf muscles and helped me not walk like a baby giraffe.It’s of good quality materials and i expect it will last some years. Shippings was fast and packaging great.

Pretty nice, very durable.
Very useful for rubbing out those muscle knots and kinks in those hard to reach areas. I’ve used it on my calves, thighs, and neck, and it works well. It’s not as hard as another stick I have, which I like. Also, unlike that same other stick, it has held up without breaking.The only thing I don’t like is the shape of the rubbing surface. I prefer the smoother round surface. The ‘knobs’ on this kind of hurt my delicate muscles. Maybe I’m just a baby, but that’s my preference.

I have terrible problems with my IT bands and use this on …
I call this thing my Satan Stick, because holy hell do you feel it! I have terrible problems with my IT bands and use this on a regular basis to roll out my legs. It definitely helps loosen things and gets the blood flowing, but you will develop a love-hate relationship with this thing worse than any ex you’ve ever dated. I use it myself on certain muscle groups, but to really dig in there on other spots it works best to have someone else roll it out for you. It could even be someone who doesn’t like you, because they will get to watch you writhe in pain as this thing loosens up bits that have been tight since that wild tailgate party back in college where the guy wearing the horse mask hit you with a stick when he missed swinging at the liquor pinata.You will be glad you bought this while simultaneously regretting it and cursing the person who invented this for generations to come.

Great product
This product has been a game changer for me. It is easy to use and very well made. I use my foam roller much less frequently. I use it extensively on my quads, hamstrings, and my calves.

Voici un un excellent article que je recommande chaleureusement.Je fais du sport entre 4 et 7h/semaine, essentiellement du Crossfit, de la musculation ou du cardio.Après une bonne séance de musculation (ou de Crossfit), il n’est pas recommandé de s’étirer puisque les fibres musculaires ont déjà été sollicitées et connaissent des micro-lésions. Il faut donc faire des assouplissements tout en douceur et ce rouleau y contribue.Il sert à masser et détendre les muscles : il les décontracte vraiment bien. Il est solide et tient bien en main. Sa poignée peut servir pour des points de compression.Personnellement, je l’utilise beaucoup pour les cuisses (particulièrement les mollets et les tendons d’Achille, pour stimuler la vascularisation; ainsi que les ischios) et, par moment, pour le haut du dos. Mais pour la partie du dos, j’ai acheté le rouleau plus gros que j’utilise au sol et qui convient mieux, je trouve.Voici donc un bon investissement si vous pratiquez le sport régulièrement de manière assez intense.J’espère que ces quelques lignes vous seront utiles.

Devo dire che è davvero il migliore. Comprato per staccare delle aderenze che avevo in una gamba. Usato regolarmente prima e dopo l’attività fisica, dopo un bel massaggio rivascolarizzante, ha prodotto buonissimi risultati. È fatto con una gomma dura ma è un pezzo unico. In modo che non pizzichi la pelle o possa tirare i peli nelle gambe degli uomini. Consigliatissimo. Veramente utile.
